in the early 60s used to visit my uncle and he would have the NFL games on every Sunday and then my other Uncle would have Thanksgiving Day games on. LOVED watching the games. Been a season Ticket holder since 1981. New many of the Patriot players from Maurice Hurst, Ty Law who invited me to his home as a rookie, Dave Meggett, Steve Nelson i used to see a few times a week. Ben Coates around 60 plus times, Drew Bledsoe several times a week, Scott Z, Max Lane, Todd Rucci with that crew. Willie McGinest, Chris Slade, Terry Glenn i would see numerous times while shopping before the Stadium entrance at the market and always kind enough for a chat if he had time. Bruce Armstrong (love eating his and Drews buffalo wings if Drew chatted too long). John Hannah pre game chats after retirement, Andre Tippett around Norwood (great guy). Irvin Fryer I used to see out at dance clubs as a rookie and chat including his first weekend after signing. I also knew and met with Johnny Unitas and talked to him. Big hand shake and such big mechanic hands.

I remember the days when I could walk anywhere in the stadium and have a seat and games to the players strike with the fill ins , reDoug Flutie and fans near me with bags over heads that Pats were so bad. Mini mac, Daryl Stingley, Mosi(so sad about passing for such a patriot guy). First row seats used to be 8 Dollars!

At first I was a Seahawks fan because Martian Lynch and Russel Winston are respectable players who are good for community. Then they win Super Bowl and I'm a fan since 1992. But then this year they lose to the Patriots and then am like you know what I like America more than Seedle so now am fan of Patriots instead

I'm a pretty "new" fan.
I live in Sweden and football isn't really that big over here but years ago I went to San Diego and ended up watching a game at the Qualcomm Stadium. Loved it even if I didn't understand all of it. But that was years ago and now a network here have started airing NFL so now I can watch the games live even if it is in the middle of night here.
So why Patriots and not San Diego wich was my first "Real" game? Well it's a pleasure watching Patriots play and with the greatest QB's of all time why not. Also, the Chargers seasons tends to be.....short. Also I have a friend that is a Broncos fan and it's great to annoy him.
I hope and think I will be able to go to a game live soon.

I suppose it started when I was six years old and I was Drew Bledsoe for Halloween. Growing up in Michigan I latched onto the Patriots when I couldn't get into the Lions. Then my favorite college QB ever got drafted by them and the rest is history.
